Entertainment, MGM Pictures, Columbia Pictures Industries, Twentieth Century Fox Film, Sony BMG, Universal, EMI, Blizzard Entertainment, Sierra Entertainment, and Activision. The defendants have already stated they will appeal the decision.

Yes, you are correct in your assertions - I am trying to shape those around me with the *real* truths of the core problems, sadly, most people have been so deeply brainwashed that anything other than the BS that the think is hearsay.

As to your other point, my personal, theological, and religious viewpoints do not allow me to take the path that you've outlined. Plus, I intend to be as much of a thorn in the backside of society as possible for the duration of my life. Having to put up with all of this BS is enough, I'm giving a bit back ;-)

Cheers,

Dave

Have you ever stopped to consider that your so called *real* truth is a bunch of crap you've been taken in by and the so called "deeply brainwashed" people are rational people who've seen through your faulty analysis. Just because people disagree with you doesn't mean that you're right and they're brainwashed.

You can believe that if you want. I'm very positive that history, if it's remembered at all, will prove me right.
